W
hen storms roll in, you need our crews to roll out — day or night. They proactively maintain the power delivery system throughout the year to make it stronger and less vulnerable to threats. That means our lineworkers are conditioned for the difficulties of restoring power when disaster strikes. As soon as it’s safe, they respond quickly to get your power back on. You can prepare, too. Protect yourself and your loved ones by having an emergency kit on hand. Include the following items and any others your family may need: • • • • • • • •
Bottled water Nonperishable food items Flashlights and batteries A battery-powered radio Medicines Extra blankets Baby items Pet food
Always here for you If severe weather causes outages, your cooperative is already prepared to:
Respond day or night
Secure additional help
Restore power quickly and safely
Shopping for these items will be a little cheaper during Florida’s Disaster Preparedness Tax Free Weekend which is currently scheduled PAGE 12
